Montgomery Group Team To Take On Charity Dragon Boat Race

A team of 11 employees from Montgomery Group, the organisers of the Professional Woodworking Expo and FIT Show amongst others, will once again take to the water on the 18 September 2025 for the annual London Ambulance Charity Dragon Boat Race.

Competing under the team name ROW FARAH, the group from Montgomery Group is returning after a “dramatic” showing last year, where they came close to victory before an unexpected plunge into the Thames. This time, the team is determined to make an even stronger impact.

The London Ambulance Charity Dragon Boat Race raises vital funds to support the staff and volunteers of the London Ambulance Service. Donations enable the Service to provide essential wellbeing initiatives for its people, who are often working under intense pressure.

Charitable contributions also help fund innovative training programmes that enhance the lifesaving care delivered every day.

Montgomery Group’s ROW FARAH is calling on colleagues, friends, and supporters to get behind their efforts. Every contribution supports a great cause!
